WTB: Steel compensated Tele saddles

Jeddy3 · July 2020

Hi. Does anyone have a spare set of steel compensated Tele saddles? They need to be 21.5 mm in width. Not looking for a super expensive set but noting too cheap either.

Thanks

I've none to sell, but when I looked there were plenty of options for brass but relatively few for steel, the few being Callaham, Glendale, CrazyParts etc at the top of the market, nothing in the middle price range (no Gotoh or ABM options as there are in brass) and then the nickel plated steel Wilkinson style ones for about a tenner from @gavin_axecaster. Gotoh do titanium ones, but I haven't tried them. Wilkinson style ones are these:

Yeah it seems brass are more popular for sure but i just wanted to see if i could get a brighter tone from steel. Thanks for the Axecaster link but I'm already aware of those ones. I think they are 1mm too short but I have emailed them confirming the length.

Cheers!

Those saddles are 20.85mm wide and 16.47mm between screw centres.

Thanks mate. I just replied via ebay messaging too.

Edit: I ordered a set. Sure they'll be fine.

Howdy, Stranger!
